Hey guys. I have multiple sets of plugs for the 1299. NGK MAR9A-J and MAR10A-J. The bike ships with the 9 but several places list the 10 for the 1199/1299 as well. The plugs are identical except for the heat range. The 10 is a colder plug (NGK is backwards). Anyone using a colder plug on the Panigale? Thanks

I've only bothered with colder plugs under hard track use with the compression ratio bumped up. With stock internals and ignition timing I leave the plugs at the stock heat range.

I don't see how a spark plug would affect timing. Yes, I second the idea of a colder plug for hard track use.

It doesn't. But advanced timing can affect the heat range needed for the plug.
